Original Gaucho Foam-Measurements?

Does anyone have the measurements for the foam for the front and side gaucho (pull-out) beds. My rear one has two old (funky) mattresses instead of the nice looking upholstered foam. The front has two pieces of foam in a velour cover and a separate narrow piece that is curved on one side to complete the "bed".

I would like to make new pieces of foam and cover with some nice new material.

Thanks for any help you can give.

Ciao, Brian

Baby matresses

I seen baby bed matresses for about 13 dollars at Wal-mart.

You could buy two of those and make your new cushions.

You would have to cut the matress open to get to the foam. The matress is vinyl covered.

I paid 125 dollars for a pad from a matress foam manufacturer.

I looked around and for some weird reason, foam is expensive!

A sewing machine and a futon cover work great. (Futon cover has zipper) cut to fit the matress or convert your Gaucho to a true full size bed.
